I kind of would rather have a strut spring set up too but the companies are slow getting these out for our rides! i am kind of thinking more toward just a mild 1.5 - 1.75 drop just to save money. with the house and not getting the side jobs that i want it will be better for me to spend the money on springs for now and then up grade to teins when the money become available. it will all depend on what i will get back from taxes though. taxes will be the ultimate decision breaker.

Close, but no cigar, the guy who makes Goldines used to be a Big Shot for Eibach

Maybe eventually you will but not right away. You should be able to go a long time with your strut shocks. But, you will get a better ride with struts made for a lowered vehicle. A more sporty, tighter ride if that is what you want.

The camber kit depends on your drop and what size wheels you go with if you plan on going with a mild drop and upgrade in wheel size you might get away without the camber
I have nuespeed sport without a camber kit and my camber is good. cant even tell. I belive the drop is 1.75/1.5 and I'm sure it settels a bit from that. Looks gook on my 17's.

im thinkin about goin with adjustable coilovers cuz of the roads here.. but if i go with coilovers, will my stock struts be alright for a while? or will i have to go buy new struts right away?
edgar, wat kind of struts do you have on your ride?
edgar, wat kind of struts do you have on your ride?
when u drop your car, you're putting more stress on the shocks and they are bound to blow. driving around in detroit will ruin the shocks. the price u pay for sleeved coilovers and shocks, u mind as well spend a couple hundred more and get a better ride out of true coilovers. for me, i was in a rush to close the wheel gap so i got springs and shocks already. and no matter what you get, the back is always gonna be bumpy. with my koni yellows, its just less bumpy.
The neuspeeds ride real nice with just me or one other person in the car, but when there are people in the back it gets kinda rough, but nothing too bad. I have about 7 thousand miles on them and my struts are fine. They lower the front more but it makes it pretty even, I have about a two or less finger gap all around with 17's and 205/40's When I come home from college next I'll take a drive and meet up with you guys if you want to see it or drive with me to feel the ride. I'll be home maybe next weekend. Later
